Articles of peace were signed by John West and the native kings, May 29, 1677 (Brinley Catalogue, 5484.)
Mrs. Aphra Behn made the events rather distantly the subject of a drama, The Widdow Ranter; and in our day St. George Tucker based his novel of Hansford upon them. See Sabin, ii. 4372.—Ed.
[322] In 1722 the book was reissued in London, revised and enlarged as the author had left it, and this edition is now worth £10 10s. It was again reprinted in 1855, edited by Charles Campbell. (Sabin, vol. ii.; Brinley, 3719; Muller, 1877, no. 318, etc.) Jones’s Present State of Virginia, 1724, may also be noted.
[323] [Thomas Hollis wrote in the copy of Keith which he sent to Harvard College in 1768, “The Society, the glorious society, instituted in London for promoting Learning, having existed but a little while, through scrubness of the times, no other than Part I. of this history was published, and it is very scarce.”—Ed.]
[324] [Some claim to be printed in London in 1753; the copy in Harvard College Library is of this 1753 imprint; see Hist. Mag. i. 59, and ii. 61 (where it is asserted that only the title is of new make), and the bibliographical note which Sabin added to his reprint of Stith in 1865, where he describes three varieties. There is a collation in the Brinley Catalogue, no. 3,796, not agreeing with either; cf. Hist. Mag. ii. 184, and North American Review, October, 1866, p. 605.—Ed.]
